    Phew... Rico v. AK was a stinker. Would AK be a decent gatekeeper if he dropped a weight class, maybe? Hino probably won enough fans that he won't be a dollar short for lunch any time soon.

    THe finish was a little anti climatic but Hino was hurt pretty bad there and he was basically out with his head drapped over the ropes and back the the guy throwing punches. I mean if you're smogger what can you do.

    Unfortunate stoppage but Smoger didn't have a choice. If Hino was overwhelmed and needed a break, he should've taken a knee instead of hugging the ropes with his back to the ring. He's lucky he was only boxing and not taking a shower in prison.

    I like Troy, hopefully we see him against a top 10 Cruiserweight soon.

    Must be hard to not drop the soap when wearing boxing gloves.

    Hino winning at the time of the stoppage.

    Props to both guys, neither is elite but both came through a stacked, evenly matchd field to come out as the top 2 Contender finalists.

    TROY ROSS!

    Good for him, now lets hope he doesn't fall victim to The Contender pit of death that other winners have fallen into. Get back in the ring within 4 months and keep the momentum going!
